Clank!"Focus young warrior, you would be already dead if this was a battle" Mr Rango shouted at the biggest kid in the hall who he was sparing with. He wanted to demonstrate the importance of size in a physical battle as he encouraged those who were skinny to gather some flesh and also workout. He would often be quoted saying : "Be like me, the ultimate structure of a man!", before laughing like a happy maniac. Today was no different as his students knew a gruelling training session awaited them, as each of them would spar with him in turns.Jake stood in line, his back against the wall. Slowly he flipped a dagger continously while falling into deep thoughts. It's been two weeks since he last saw Daphne, and she had been on his mind. This had nothing to do with feelings but her ability; body transformation. He was fascinated and at the same time, his guts told him repeatedly to get it by all means. Last week, a new item under perks in his prime shop was made available. He was eithe
There was gasps amongst the students as Jake was the only person so far that had made Mr Rango to execute an attack in the form of a defense. It was a deflection act but undeniably an attacking strike."You did good kid, I'm impressed". Mr Rango said in a deep voice and a wide smile."Want to be my protégé?" He asked. This resulted in more comments as teachers usually picked at most three protégé amongst each years, though not many were fond of it, but they only did so after the second test. And one had to pass the second test before been picked.But here was a situation where the Warrior master was asking a student to be his protégé right before the second test. He would definitely be an idiot not to take it."I'm sorry master, but I can't accept it". He replied politely. "Huh""What the fuck?"."Is he an idiot?" "Ahh, he's definitely an idiot". The students were shocked and showed signs of irritation and disgust as a lot of them insulted him and also wondered if he had lost his
A new week and the air was cold and tensed. One could literally slice it open with a knife and still find ice in it. This only applied to the first years, and as the second test was due to take place anytime, any moment of the new week. No one knew when or what kind, everything about the test was hidden, including the announcements of preparation that was done for the previous one. It wasn't compulsory to pass the test but at the end of the day, one just had to choose between celebrating success or managing post traumatic stress disorder."Everyone take a seat, and let's begin our morning session". Miss Shelry spoke firmly. It seemed she was in a more serious mood than her students, and not to be beaten at their own game, they quickly obeyed. "First and foremost, congrats to all of you on learning how to absorb energy essence, I'm well pleased that none of you was sent home. Though it was a surprise since I didn't expect some of the F ranks to pass the stage, but hey, you guys tried"
"The third level potioneers are called witches or wizards, the fourth, master witch or wizard and the fifth; grandmaster witch or wizard". There was gasps among the students as most of them haven't heard of the terms witch or wizard. Jake wasn't, the time spent at the library wasn't a waste. What he didn't expect was for her to skip the other part about witches and wizards been a race, as some of the students who have heard of witches and wizards thought they weren't humans as they echoed their thoughts.'Truly information isn't given in this world, you have to actively take it'.Mrs Banbee went on to explain and list some of the potions associated with each of the potion level. From the simplest to the hardest. Soon enough, the class was over and with no questions, she quickly left like someone was chasing her.Immediately Mrs Banbee left the class, Jake quickly stood up and headed for the door. He could see her huge figure walking fast towards her office, sorry her magical coven lik
'Welp'"Okay ma'am. " Jake stood up slowly, while maintaining eye contact with her. He got to the entrance and paused just for a second before turning."What if it's not potioneering, I'm interested in ma'am " He said slowly with a smile."My apologies for been disrespectful earlier"."Continue speaking " Miss Banbee said calmly.He was still standing at the entrance as ge continued speaking."It's about alchemy"."Mhm, alchemy !" . "Come inside boy" she quickly said and pulled him in."Why alchemy ?" "What's going on ?" He asked, feeling the air had become tensed than it was before. She narrowed her eyes, signifying him to begin speaking. "Okay, okay". "It's all about my sister, I'm trying to find a cure for her" . He thought of lying, but decided not to. He had her attention and if she caught him lying then his plans would only get harder since she would no longer been interested in teaching him. Though he didn't want to let anyone know of his plan cause he had no idea who mad
The constant chirping sounds of birds and the gentle morning breeze blew across the green lush field. It was a beautiful scenery as it had a clear blue sky and only a tree in the middle with a large expanse of vegetation covering it. One could call it a well tended garden, if it wasn't cared for by nature. It was breathtaking to behold as it screamed peaceful, to the point it looked so unreal. Despite the consistent chirping of birds, no living thing could be seen in sight. Slowly a child stood up from the ground, and pulled down the cloak covering its head. A pale white boy, with ocean blue eyes and white hair looked around before focusing up, staring at the sun for a moment. He just stood there doing nothing, like he was a character in toy story when a kid enters the room. Slowly he turned towards the centre, his attention at the only tree in the middle of the enchanting field; he walked towards it. As he walked closer to the tree, the chirping sounds got lower, until he was but a
"How dare you imbecile, mention such name before my presence!" SPURT!With wide shocked bulging eyes, the man stared at his chest where the thick branch was sticking out. It was so fast that he didn't see it but could only feel being stabbed from the back as he was lifted up from the ground and brought towards the tree. He could feel his life force slowly draining from him, the shine of his soul getting duller and his mortal flesh decaying at a rapid pace. His eyes held the silent plea of forgiveness and mercy but to no avail as he stared at his flesh stripped down from his bone gradually, and melting as soon as it touched the red liquid below. Death held him by the throat, he knew not when he was gone. "Oh revered one, spare us" Another spoke up, trying to save their skins from the impending disaster. Choosing words that would please her, he continued. "The imbecile, one of his greatest works has been activated." Immediately he spoke, the erratic movement of the tree branches st
'Rank B talent?' he thought to himself as he dashed forward, reappearing before the huge guy and slashed at him with the sword in his right hand. CLANG!The sound of metal clashing against metal resounded in the hallway. "Huh, what the.." Jake took two steps back before jumping out of harms way as a metallic fist punched where he was standing early on. Its force creating a mini crater on the floor, as a small hole formed that light rays could pass through to the floor below. He could see cracks on the ground branching out from the hardened fist; it glowed red."A metallic fist, it seems you guys aren't concerned that I'm just a student since you are all going out." He said out loud with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.He turned to hear the female chuckling as she replied him:"Don't bitch about it" .His senses tingled as the hairs on his skin stood erect."Danger" He muttered under his breathe as he immediately ducked, going into prone position just as a blade whizzed past his hea
